<p style="text-align: justify;">This fine quality piece displays a velvet textured surface. This trait is much less common in fine azurite specimens than what it is in fine malachite. This piece was collected from the mine during the 1970's or 1980's. Hence, it is a relatively recently collected specimen. I bought it from an anonymous supplier in Melbourne in late 2015. </p>
